indica-dominant strainCataract Kush
Cataract Kush is an indica-dominant hybrid of LA Confidential and OG Kush. Damp soil, spices, pine and fuel-like gas define the aroma; the flowers are described as dense and resin-rich. Sources place the effects on the heavier side. THC ranges from 20 to 24 percent remain batch- and phenotype-dependent reference values.

Editorial profile
Cataract Kush in detail
Origin & classification
With LA Confidential and OG Kush, Cataract Kush has a clearly documented parental combination. Both names appear consistently in the English source description and the structured data. The strain is listed as an indica-dominant hybrid. No breeder is named in the available dataset, so the characteristics cannot be attributed to a specific breeder version.
Aroma & taste
The aroma is shaped by a damp, earthy foundation. Spicy and pine-like notes form the clearest part of the structured description. The source adds an intense fuel or gas character. Sensorily, Cataract Kush therefore moves in a dark, savory direction, far removed from distinctly sweet candy or dessert profiles. Individual terpenes are not specified and should not be inferred retrospectively from the aroma descriptors.
Terpene profile
The flowers are described as dense and resin-rich. This information comes from the brief English source and provides at least a specific indication of the flower structure. Information on plant height, branching, yield, flowering time or growing conditions is missing, however. Typical characteristics of the two parents must likewise not be transferred to Cataract Kush without evidence.
Effect tendency
For effects, the structured profile contains only the term “heavy”. This suggests a pronounced body-focused or calming perception, but is not sufficient for more precise statements about progression, mood or duration. Such a source description is subjective and may vary depending on the person, amount and actual composition of the batch. No further effects are therefore added.
Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance
A range of 20 to 24 percent is available for THC. It appears both in the source description and in the data fields, but should still be considered batch- and phenotype-dependent. Information on CBD is missing. Based on these values, Cataract Kush may reach a strong THC profile, but cannot be reduced to a fixed percentage. Without a specific laboratory reference, the range remains a general source reference value.
Further classification
The reliable profile is therefore compact but coherent: a cross of LA Confidential and OG Kush, an indica-dominant orientation, dense resinous flowers and a heavy effect profile. The combination of damp soil, spices, pine and fuel-like gas is particularly characteristic. A more comprehensive cultivation or chemotype description would require data on the breeder, flowering time, yield, terpenes and CBD; the available information nevertheless supports a factual strain portrait without speculative additions.
